P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2007 Mercury Mountaineer, 2007 Mercury Monterey, 2007 Mercury Montego, 2007 Mercury Milan, and 2007 Mercury Mariner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P0191 - FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR A CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE

Description:  The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) checks the fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor for an acceptable fuel pressure. The test fails when the fuel pressure falls below or exceeds a minimum/maximum calibrated value for a calibrated period of time.
Possible Causes: 
  • High fuel pressure
  • Low fuel pressure
  • Damaged FRP sensor
  • Excessive resistance in the circuit
  • Vacuum leaks
  • Low or no fuel
Diagnostic Aids:  A FRP PID value during key ON, engine running of 138 kPa (20 psi) to 413 kPa (60 psi) is acceptable.
